Merry Christmas - Top Dog Dies

Hello blogging friends!

I am getting a head start on some Christmas cards using the newly released Top Dog Dies. I combined dies from several different sets and came up with this ...

Those polar bears are so adorable. I added the hat from the Penguin die set to make it more Christmas like. The snow drift also comes from the Penguin die set. I threw in a couple trees from the Pocket Page Winter die set.

I love using this flag banner to emphasize my card sentiments. It is from the Pocket Page Banner die set.

Supplies:

Pattern Paper: Pebbles

Holly Jolly - Top Dog Dies

Hello blogging friends. I've decided I needed to do something for Christmas in July so at least now I have a start on Christmas cards for 2015, lol. My inspiration came from this gorgeous Top Dog Dies Darling Deer die set.  

By layering a piece of embossed vellum over my trees, I've created the illusion of snow falling.

The deer set includes the mound of snow, the scarf, and the holly I've tucked under my sentiment.

Supplies:

Hero Arts Merry Christmas Trees stamp set
Imaginisce die cut sentiment
Gold, white, green and red cardstock
vellum

Welcome Baby - Top Dog Dies

Hello blogging friends. It's finally Spring!!!! One of my favorite things about Spring is all the babies! Marcia here today with a card I created for a friend who just had a baby. I thought this baby chick from the Feathered Friends die set would be perfect on a baby card. It's even cuter in the bottom half of an egg from the Decorated Eggs die set from Top Dog Dies.

The baby chick die has a little beak included. I added eyes with a black gel pen. Each little baby chick was placed on a quilted square.

I love the details in these dies.... check out those dotted edges on the egg and chick.

Just Chicken In - Top Dog Dies

Hello Wednesday! That means I have another Top Dog Dies project to share with you. Today I made a card with the new Spring Feathered Friends die set.

Aren't those chicks adorable! I also used the new Grass die here. Here is a close-up of those chicks. Look at the stitched detail on them. Fabulous!

Some foam adhesive under the wings adds dimension.
